Declare your love for Free Software!

on: 2011-02-11

Why not make this February 14th a very special Valentine's Day?
On Valentine's Day, FSFE calls on Free Software users
everywhere
to show
their love for Free Software. It is the perfect occasion to
show our love for Free Software and the possibility to use
computers in freedom.

On its
campaign page, FSFE suggests what users can do to show that
they appreciate Free Software. Simply sending a developer a mail to
say “Thank you”, taking a picture illustrating one's love for Free Software,
declaring your love by microblog
with the tag #ilovefs or
donating to a Free
Software project is all among the options.

Behind every Free Software initiative and organisation are real, passionate hard-working people.
Just for one day, on Valentine's Day, FSFE invites all Free Software advocates around the world
to send a thank you message to the people that work to make Free Software happen.

"Without Free Software, there would be no KDE. Free Software gives KDE life.
KDE loves Free Software" declared Cornelius Schumacher, President of the KDE e.V.
"No Free Culture project would be able to enjoy the full freedoms without the infrastructure
created by Free Software projects[…]. To everyone engaged in supporting this infrastructure:
thank you! We love you!", adds Jonas Öberg of the Society for
Free Culture and Software (Föreningen fri kultur och programvara)

About FSFE

Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users to
control technology.

Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our lives. It is important
that this technology empowers rather than restricts us. Free Software
gives everybody the rights to use, understand, adapt and share software.
These rights help support other fundamental rights like freedom of
speech, freedom of press and privacy.
